The ratio of men to women in a certain factory is 3 to 4. There are 210 men

1 answer:

8 0

You can solve this by setting up a proportion. The number of men over the number of women. 3/4 = 210/x Cross multiply 3x = 4(210) Multiply 3x = 840 Divide x = 280 When there are 210 men, there are 280 women.

Find the taylor series for f(x) centered at the given value of a. [assume that f has a power series expansion. do not show that

RUDIKE [14]

The taylor series for the f(x)=8/x centered at the given value of a=-4 is -2+2(x+4)/1!-24/16 $(x+4)^{2}$ /2!+...........

Given a function f(x)=9/x,a=-4.

We are required to find the taylor series for the function f(x)=8/x centered at the given value of a and a=-4.

The taylor series of a function f(x)= $f(a)+f^{1}(a)(x-a)/1!+ f^{11}(a)(x-a)^{2} /2! +f^{111}(a)(x-a)a^{3}/3!+..........$

Where the terms in f prime $f^{1}$ (a) represent the derivatives of x valued at a.

For the given function.f(x)=8/x and a=-4.

So,f(a)=f(-4)=8/(-4)=-2.

$f^{1}$ (a)= $f^{1}$ (-4)=-8/( $-4)^{2}$

=-8/16

=-1/2

The series of f(x) is as under:

f(x)=f(-4)+ $f^{1}(-4)(x+4)/1!+ f^{11}(-4)(x+4)^{2}/2!.............$

$=8/(-4)-8/(-4)^{2} (-4)(x+4)/1!+ 24/(-4)^{3} (-4)(x+4)^{2}/2!.............$

=-2+2(x+4)/1!-24/16 $(x+4)^{2}$ /2!+...........

Hence the taylor series for the f(x)=8/x centered at the given value of a=-4 is -2+2(x+4)/1!-24/16 $(x+4)^{2}$ /2!+...........

A physical fitness association is including the mile run in its secondary- school fitness test. the time for this event for boys

liberstina [14]

Answer:

<u>The probability that a randomly selected boy in school can run the mile in less than 348 seconds is 1.1%.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information provided to us to answer the question correctly:

μ of the time a group of boys run the mile in its secondary- school fitness test = 440 seconds

σ of the time a group of boys run the mile in its secondary- school fitness test = 40 seconds

2. Find the probability that a randomly selected boy in school can run the mile in less than 348 seconds.

Let's find out the z-score, this way:

z-score = (348 - 440)/40

z-score = -92/40 = -2.3

Now let's find out the probability of z-score = -2.3, using the table:

p (-2.3) = 0.0107

p (-2.3) = 0.0107 * 100

p (-2.3) = 1.1% (rounding to the next tenth)

<u>The probability that a randomly selected boy in school can run the mile in less than 348 seconds is 1.1%.</u>

Based on the Nielsen ratings, the local CBS affiliate claims its 11 p.m. newscast reaches 41% of the viewing audience in the are

Nastasia [14]

Answer:

$z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}$ (1)

$z=\frac{0.36 -0.41}{\sqrt{\frac{0.41(1-0.41)}{100}}}=-1.017$

Step-by-step explanation:

Data given and notation

n=100 represent the random sample taken

$\hat p=0.36$ estimated proportion with the survey

$p_o=0.41$ is the value that we want to test

$\alpha$ represent the significance level

z would represent the statistic (variable of interest)

$p_v$ represent the p value (variable of interest)

Concepts and formulas to use

We need to conduct a hypothesis in order to test the claim that the true proportion is lower than 0.41.:

Null hypothesis: $p\geq 0.41$

Alternative hypothesis: $p < 0.41$

When we conduct a proportion test we need to use the z statistic, and the is given by:

$z=\frac{\hat p -p_o}{\sqrt{\frac{p_o (1-p_o)}{n}}}$ (1)

The One-Sample Proportion Test is used to assess whether a population proportion $\hat p$ is significantly different from a hypothesized value $p_o$ .

Calculate the statistic

Since we have all the info requires we can replace in formula (1) like this:

$z=\frac{0.36 -0.41}{\sqrt{\frac{0.41(1-0.41)}{100}}}=-1.017$
